We present a fully probabilistic stick-figure model that uses a nonparametric Bayesian distribution over trees for its structure prior. Sticks are represented by nodes in a tree i...

The two parameter Poisson-Dirichlet process is also known as the PitmanYor Process and related to the Chinese Restaurant Process, is a generalisation of the Dirichlet Process, and...
The Dirichlet process can be used as a nonparametric prior for an infinite-dimensional probability mass function on the parameter space of a mixture model. The set of parameters o...
Prior work has shown that features which appear to be biologically plausible as well as empirically useful can be found by sparse coding with a prior such as a laplacian (L1) that...
Background: One of the challenges of bioinformatics remains the recognition of short signal sequences in genomic DNA such as donor or acceptor splice sites, splicing enhancers or ...
